Ranbir Kapoor with 3 heroines

ranbir kapoor,Deepika Padukone, Minissha Lamba ,Bipasha Basu


That Ranbir Kapoor gets to romance three lovely ladies in director Siddhartha Anand’s ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’ is a stale one now. The latest addition is that the deadly trio together with Ranbir has shot a promotional number for the movie.


Choreographed by Ahmed Khan, the number has Ranbir jiving with the three ladies of the film - Deepika Padukone, Minissha Lamba and Bipasha Basu. To be known here that the three ladies are not sharing the share screen space in the film but are appearing together only in this promotional track.


The song has been composed by Vishal-Shekhar and has interesting facts related to it. The song uses the original opening lines of the famous song “Bachna Ae Haseeno” from Rishi Kapoor’s film ‘Hum Kissi Se Kam Nahin’. Where Kishore Kumar had sung the original one for Rishi Kapoor in 1977, Kishoreda’s son Sumeet has sung the song with similar title for Rishi Kapoor’s son Ranbir Kapoor in this movie.


At first, Ranbir was supposed to sing this song but the idea was dropped later. Hope the father’s song does wonders for son’s film.

Priyanka-Chopra,Harman


Bollywood young couple Priyanka Chopra and Harman Baweja’s on-screen pairing has caught the attention of a lot of people, including director Ashutosh Gowarikar. The real-life couple is in advanced talks with the director for his next film, which is supposedly based on an English play. While Priyanka and Harman look great together, we will have to wait to see if it translates to an equally good chemistry in Love Story 2050 as well.


Harman Baweja and Priyanka Chopra deny being in a relationship, what meets the eyes, says a different story. We saw the protective and caring side of the otherwise lighthearted Harman at the IIFA weekend. Taking time off from the show, Piggy Chops and beau, Harman were seen taking a look at a zoo in Bangkok. There, Priyanka decided to venture out and actually hold a King Cobra in her hand. While the pretty dame looked quite scared, what took the cake was Harman’s expression.


Looking terrified, Harman insisted on Priyanka putting the creepy serpent away. Obviously, he couldn’t bear to see anybody else in his lady love’s arms.

Upen teaming up with Ranbir and Katrina

ranbir_kapoor,katrina,upen


Actor Upen Patel is quite upbeat about teaming up with Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif in Rajkumar Santoshi’s next film “Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani”, even though he doesn’t play the lead role.So what is he doing in a movie that has Ranbir playing the hero?”It is the love story of Ranbir and Katrina, no two ways about it,” admits Upen. “But I don’t have a flimsy part at all … No way. I’ve 40 days of work in the film. I come into the plot like Salman (Khan) in ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’,” he said.


“But my main reason for doing the film was of course Raj Santoshi. When he offered me a role I felt ten-feet tall. When I heard the script, I fell in love with my character. No way was I going to miss the chance of being in this film just because another actor had the lead.”


Upen refused to say anything more about the movie because he is under a strict contract not to reveal any details of the plot.


“But the biggest compliment I got was when Rajji said he was making a comedy after 14 years. And if Ranbir is like Aamir (Khan) in ‘Andaz Apna Apna’, I’m like Salman in that film. The faith that he has shown in me is precious. I’m working hard to live up to his faith,” the actor said.


Upen, who worked with Katrina in “Namaste London”, is pretty sure that the lovely actress would prove lucky for him. “Katrina and I were in ‘Namaste London’ together. And look where that film took her,” he remarked.“We’re both Londoners, remember? We were both raw and new when we did ‘Namaste London’. Look how lucky she is for her movies. Hope she proves lucky for me as well,” said Upen.

Diya Mirza is real hottie

dia mirza


In Bollywood, where the fame and fortune change constantly, there are very few who can actually live upto their name. Dia Mirza is definitely one of them. After having scorched many films with her powerful performances, she is all set to blaze the screen once again with her forthcoming flick Acid Factory. Dia will be seen in a glam-chic avatar in the film.


The credit goes to Nikhil Mehra, of the famous Nikhil-Shantanu duo who, at the behest of a brief given by Sanjay Gupta, has given Dia a very structured, sexy and an action-oriented look. Of all her outfits in the film, we strongly feel that the highlight should be her flaming red dress, which is simply a stunner.


On his own admission, Nikhil says that Dia looks hotter than ever before in Acid Factory. And a little peek on the red outfit ’reveals’ that it has a slit showing off her legs and a gun holster high up on her thigh straight out of Sin City.

mallika_sherawat hot pictures


The popular image of the actress is that of a hot and sexy girl, it seems Mallika is keen to prove that she can carry off a very challenging role that too as the protagonist of a film.Film maker Tigmanshu Dhulia has already decided that Mallika is the right person to bring the real life character of Begum Sumro into Bollywood.


The actress who till now is known more for her skin show and controversies will be playing Begum Sumro who was an unknown nautch girl in the 18th century till she married a European Walter Reinhardt. She converted to Christianity after her marriage and adopted the name Joanna.Begum became known as an efficient administrator and ruler after she took over the fief under the control of her husband and ruled it after his death.


If we assess her recent seen characters in this film and in movies like ’Ugli Aur Pagli’ and the negative character in the Tamil film ’Dasavatharam’, it can be understood that Mallika does not want to stick on with same kind of glamour doll characters and wants to constantly experiment with her roles.So the role of Begum Sumroo could not have come to Mallika at a better time.All the best Mallika.

Asin in bollywood

asin kollywood actress pictures


Kollywood beauty Queen Asin is set to storm Hindi films with Ghajini opposite Aamir Khan after conquering Telugu and Tamil cinema. Ask her if she is set to become next big Bollywood’s diva from the South, and the actress giggles in embarrassment, “I’m a long way from getting anywhere near Hema, Rekha and Sridevi. But I feel hugely welcome in Mumbai. I don’t know why filmmakers are showing so much interest in me.” Asin (pronounced Ah-sin) she explains her name: “Asin is coined from Sanskrit and English. It means ‘sinless’... like ‘Amala’… without blemish. I hope I live up to my name in Mumbai.”


For now, Mumbai is her home. “But only because my immediate commitments are in Mumbai,” she clarifies. “I’m the brand ambassador for six multi-national companies and the ads need to be shot in Mumbai. Now there are Hindi films too. ”Fortunately, Asin speaks Hindi without that Southern twang that is even now so pronounced in Hema. “I’ve never used a dubbing artiste for any of my films, not even for the Hindi ads, and I’m speaking in my own voice in my first Hindi film Ghajini,” she claims. “In these days of globalisation, I don’t think language is a barrier. I’m interested in films in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi and any other language as long as the projects are exciting.”


She’s aware her shift to Mumbai has given rise to rumours that she’s giving up on South Indian cinema. “That’s untrue,” says Asin defensively. “Whatever I’m today is because of Tamil and Telegu cinema. Why am I expected to choose between Mumbai and the South?”

Lara replaces Tabu

laradutta


Director Priyadarshan admits he had written the female lead of his forthcoming "Billo Barber" with favourite actress Tabu in mind but had to settle for Lara Dutta instead due to date problems.
Priyadarshan and Tabu have done great work together in films like "Viraasat" and "Kala Pani". The versatile actress even agreed to do an inconsequential role in "Hera Pheri" only for Priyadarshan’s sake.


"Billo Barber" is being produced by Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and Priyadarshan wanted Tabu to star in it. But after she opted out, Lara bagged the role.Said Priyadarshan: "It’s a role of a full-on firebrand village girl. And it’s patterned on Tabu’s role in my ’Viraasat’. I’ve to admit I think of Tabu for every female lead. But Lara is sensitive and strong enough to carry this role off with élan."


He said that Lara plays the wife of a barber, portrayed by Irrfan Khan."Though the character belongs to a higher caste, she defies social norms and the diktats of the village to marry a barber. Lara’s sophisticated image hasn’t come in the way of her performance at all. She’ll shock you," said Priyadarshan.


Shah Rukh also stars in "Billo Barber", but not opposite Lara.Said a source close to the project: "There was a certain amount of reservation about the part when Lara heard it was opposite Irrfan. Lara is extremely conscious of her co-stars’ status. Earlier she had refused Anil Kapoor’s ’Short Cut’ with Arshad Warsi.


"But the temptation of being in the same film with Shah Rukh prevailed. She had never been in any film with him and he’s producing ’Billo Barbar’. She sees this as stepping stone to a film with Shah Rukh.". And very soon she got a full-fledged role in "Jhoom Baraabar Jhoom" with the illustrious banner.

Bipasha Basu and her italy experiance


Bipasha Basu


Bipasha Basu has always had a soft spot for Italy. While she had holidayed there in the past, recently she was there for the shoot of Bachna Ae Haseeno. Bipasha,who is currently shooting for an ad, talks about her Italian eperience, "Rome and Capri are beautiful cities. Last time, I was here on holiday, this time it was for work. Both were trips to remember. I had so much fun we visited the Vatican, Cherry Fountain, the Lion Fountain at Piazza Del Poppolo, the Colloseum in Rome and many other places."


A shopaholic Bipasha who loves picking up outfits and accessories wherever she goes didn’t do much shopping in Italy this time. She says, "I shopped very little. Apart from the fact that Rome is extremely expensive, I have been going easy on what I call my ’fizul kharcha’.

I will be doing up my flat from September and am saving every penny for that. I was to design it last year but then I got busy with my commitments."


Apart from that, Bipasha finds the people of Rome friendly and approachable, "The people are wonderful and warm. And they dress impeccably. Italians are very fashion conscious. You won’t find any badly dressed Italians on the streets."


Bipasha is also a big fan of the Italian cooking, "Nothing beats pizza, pasta and sea food in Italian cuisine. Their fish and shrimps are fantastic. Of course, I had an interesting experience too. I had to go in for a root canal and was extremely apprehensive about doing it in Rome. I didn’t know the doctor there and he didn’t understand a word of English but the operation went off well. He was one of the best dentists of Rome."


Bachna Ae Haseeno also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Minissha Lamba and Deepika Padukone and is directed by Siddharth Anand. The film is about a young flirtatious man who carries out his romance with different women till he meets the one he falls in love with.

Preity Zinta wants some challenging work

preity zinta bollywood actress pictures


Bollywood cute smiling actress Preity Zinta said her preoccupation with Indian Premier League (IPL) earlier and now the `Unforgettables` world concert did not mean that she has put her film career on the backburner.


"I have four back-to-back releases this year starting with Jahanu Barua`s `Har Pal` with Dharmendra and Shiney Ahuja, `Heroes` with Salman Khan, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, `The Last Lear` with Amitabh Bachchan, Arjun Rampal and Shefali Shah and Deepa Mehta`s `Heaven on Earth`," Preity Zinta said.


The actress said she was presently dubbing for `Har Pal` and shooting for `Main Aur Mrs Khanna`. However, she declined to divulge any details of the films. She said her forthcoming releases are a natural progression for her from a mainstream commercial film actor to doing meaty roles with substance.


`Har Pal` has the original screenplay and is an out-to-out commercial film which is high on emotions. `The Last Lear` will see her playing an upcoming actress while in `Heaven on Earth` she plays a battered housewife. She said she had reached a stagnation point with the films she was doing. "I was going through the same grind and naturally wanted some challenging work. When you grow older, you need more substance. I am fortunate that when i yearned for a change, it came from all sides," she added.


"The NRI bracket associated with my films because all of them were shot abroad, was killing me. Hence, I decided to go desi in my forthcoming films," she added. Preity pointed out that she never had a glamorous image in films.

That’s one of the reasons why the release has been pushed ahead by two weeks.


"We need time to promote these songs. Besides, I don’t want to hurry up on its post-production," director Apoorva Lakhia confirms. That justifies the shift in its release date, from July 11 to July 25… With Mission Istaanbul getting shifted to July 25, EMI, starring Sanjay Dutt, will be shifted ahead as well [it was confirmed for July 25]. For those who’re unaware, both Mission Istaanbul and EMI are produced by the same banner.

Shamita Shetty and her comedy movie Hari Puttar

Shamita Shetty


The gorgeous Shamita Shetty made her debut in Bollywood with Yash Raj Films’ Mohabbatein. Though her career graph as an actress has not been too fascinating since, Shamita has impressed audiences with her item numbers-she will be seen doing the same in Hari Puttar-A Comedy Of Terrors. Excerpts from an interview where she spoke about Hari Puttar, her sister and her upcoming films.


She says about the song in the movie Hari Puttar, "This is a fun, peppy Punjabi number, a very groovy dance number.Well, the producer of the film is a very dear friend of mine. He came to me with the concept. He was very organised-with the entire concept of the song-and he even showed me a mock video. I loved it and I also loved the song. It’s really good and will be a hit. The experience was really good. I enjoyed myself a lot. It’s not a hard-core choreographed song so we were not under any kind of pressure and so enjoyed our selves a lot."


Shamita says about how a promotional song help a film, "I think the promotional song concept is really in right now and even big banners include one these days. I think such songs do help in leveraging the film. So, this song will be called an item number. I don’t understand the definition of an item number and how people tag a particular song as an item song. All I know is that this is a special song in the film, which I am glad to do.


And she tells her chemistry with the kid in the movie "[Laughs] Well, the chemistry was good. Zain is a really good dancer and he is not camera shy. In fact, he’s dynamite when the cameras are rolling. I am not working with him in the film, but from what I saw he is a great performer.


And she tells us about her future projects," Well, I wish I could sit here and predict my future and tell you when I am coming in which film, but frankly I don’t have any thing right now in my hands. I’m waiting for a nice and exciting script. We have heard that you opening your own production house. Yes, we are coming out with our own production house… probably next year. So right now I am concentrating more on it.Shamita also says about her sister Shilpa,"I think Shilpa deserves every bit of success that she has gained and I am very happy for her. And no, she is not getting married. We will definitely let you know when she plans it."

Aishwarya Rai responses to Abhishek's critic

Aishwaryarai,Abhishek


Aishwarya Rai has responded to a critic who called Abhishek Bachchan ’s character in Sarkar Raj as “an emotional fool”.A comment was left on director Ram Gopal Varma ’s blog that apparently rattled the otherwise composed Bachchan bahu. A critical reader had commented this on the blog after watching Sarkar Raj: “Shankar looks like an emotional fool when he opens his heart to a girl from America whom he met yesterday?”


To this remark, Ramu gave a tongue-in-cheek reply: “Maybe he has a weakness for worldly beauties.”But Aishwarya Rai seemed in a mood to take on the questioner and make him understand the subtle chemistry between Shankar and Anita in the film.


Ash replied thus: “When you have two people ‘confide’ in each other, it’s such a personal experience, it underlines a deep connection between the two on various levels…Given the realistic space in which the characters express themselves which is very much clear in the language of the film (Realistic in acting, dialogue, camera etc.) we chose CONFIDING IN as hugely intimate an experience to convey this deep connection, rather than ‘fans blowing hair and clothes, background aalaaps or song, round trolley movements, or rain out of nowhere and waltzing etc’ to convey this. It’s all in the Eyes of the Characters and in the intense intimacy of confiding! That’s SARKAR RAJ!”


Gauging Aishwarya’s reply, how we wish she begins to blog regularly. As for the critic, we suspect that most of what Ash said must have gone over his head.

Shahrukh_Khan,Amitabh


The war between Bollywood biggies seems to be getting dirtier day by day. Now, the gossip columns have more of heroes getting into fights and controversial statements. The cold war between Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan has deep roots attached to it. The latest addition to this is from Shahrukh Khan. It so happened that director Aditya Chopra had planned an 11 minute song for his forthcoming ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’. The song sung by Sonu Nigam will pay a tribute to the top Bollywood actors since 1950, showcasing some of their most memorable numbers.


Shahrukh was supposed to mimic all these actors in the song, but though SRK went down well with Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor, and Rajesh Khanna, he refused to dance to Amitabh Bachchan’s songs. He reasoned that media will unnecessarily create controversies with his dancing to Big B’s numbers and that won’t be in the favor of the film. So adamant was SRK with his point Aditya was then forced to remove the Amitabh Bachchan segments, replacing them with Rishi Kapoor.

According to a source close to the production house, soon after that she went on a holiday with her family and there was a lull on "My Name Is Khan" front. Now it is learnt that she has given the green signal to the movie to be directed by Karan.Though the movie is scheduled to be launched in December, a buzz has already started that Karan has a winner in his. Not only because it has a hit pair heading the cast, but also because the composer trio, Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, has scored some "outstanding" tunes for the movie.


Those who have heard some of the tunes composed with dummy lyrics say that one of the highlights of "My Name Is Khan" will certainly be its music, as it always is in a Karan Johar production.The launch of "My Name is Khan" has been deferred till December because at present Karan is busy with Dharma Productions’ other movies, including Abhishek Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra and John Abraham starrer "Dostana". The film is due for release later this year.

Shahid and Vishal have known each other from Ishq Vishk days

vidya-shahid


While shooting in Toronto at the community centre location, Vishal Malhotra (who is playing Shahid’s friend) thought his shoot for the day was done and he left for the hotel which was about a ten minutes distance from location.


Just then Aziz Mirza decided that he wanted to shoot one more angle and called for Vishal. However, he was informed that he had left. Shahid called up Vishal and asked him to come back. He also told him that the shooting has stopped and both Ramesh Taurani and Aziz Mirza were very upset that he had left the set. He told everyone to play along with this.


So when Vishal literally ran back to the location he first met Vidya who cordially just greeted him, hence making him even more nervous. Then Shahid took him aside and building up the tension told him that this was not done and now he was in trouble.


As poor Vishal came onto the set, everyone just gave him stern looks. He was so scared and kept apologizing but Rameshji gave the joke away when he could not control his laughter and Vishal realized that everyone was pulling his leg. "I can’t believe that I actually fell for it. They all held up well. Thank God for Rameshji who gave the joke away. I was so very nervous. Shahid and i have known each other from Ishq Vishk days and we keep pulling these wise ones on others but I never expected him to pull this one on me. Look out Shahid, I owe you one," he says jokingly.

No help from pakistan

Aishwarya Rai


The family of slain Pakistani leader Benazir Bhutto has said that it would not give any help to an Indian production house planning to produce a film on her but acknowledged that it cannot stop anyone from producing a movie.


In the backdrop of reports that a Mumbai-based production house was producing the film in which Aishwarya Rai may play Benazir’s role, a lawyer for her husband Asif Ali Zardari said today that the family would not provide any help for the project.


The lawyer, Ashish Mehta, said that a documentary on the life of Benazir who was assassinated in Rawalpindi in December last year was currently being made by a US production house. A spokesman for her Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Farhatullah Babar said that the documentary has been okayed by Benazir herself during her lifetime.


"...As far as we are concerned, this is the only official documentary that we are currently assisting in production," Babar told reporters. "We cannot, however, stop anyone from going ahead and making a film, but this will definitely not receive any support from us," he said. Babar also said that two other international production houses had approached the family with similar proposals, but they too had been rejected.


Noted Indian filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt had also announced a film Benazir and had approached the family in January this year. "After we objected to the film, he was cooperative and said he wouldn’t make the movie until he gets the consent of the family," Mehta said.

Ranbir and Konkona Sen Sharma a total mismatch

ranbir,Konkona Sen Sharma


Ranbir Kapoor and Konkona Sen Sharma a total mismatch, but tis a fact that the duo has been finalized for a film to be produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Production. Apparently, both Ranbir and Konkona liked the script a lot and immediately gave their affirmative nod to it.


The film is about the union of a Punjabi heir-apparent and the Bengali bohemian. The movie will be directed by Ayaan Mukherjee who’s a cousin of Kajol. Ayaan has already assisted Ashutosh Gowariker in ‘Swades’ and Karan Johar in ‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna’.


Talking about Ranbir and Konkona being a far fetched match, a source says, “That’s exactly the point. In this Mumbai-based romance about urban relationships, the director needed a pair that seems incompatible. The film is about seeking a level of compatibility in a world gone distinctly out of control.”

Harman and Priyanka against each other

Harman Baweja and Priyanka Chopra


If Bollywood producers have their way, they may soon be pitting two love birds Harman Baweja and Priyanka Chopra against each other who may be a couple off screen but may have to battle it out at the box office in a few months from now.


While Love Story 2050 would see the two coming together on 4th July, a couple of their independent films may actually be clashing at the box office, hence turning into an embarrassing situation for the couple. To top it all, none of the two films are pushovers and have big names associated with them.


We are talking about Fashion and Victory - both of which have been confirmed for a 14th November release. Priyanka Chopra plays the central protagonist in Fashion while Harman is the lead in Victory. While the release plans for Fashion were declared quite some time back, it is Victory which has very recently joined the fray.


Fashion is a high profile project that has 3 times National Award winner Madhur Bhandarkar at its helm. On the other hand Victory is directed by first time director Ajit Pal. Incidentally; both the films explore different genres. While Madhur Bhandarkar takes his audience into the underbelly of the Fashion industry in Fashion, Victory talks about the journey of a small town boy who grows on to be an international cricketer.

Katrina Kaif has just returned from Egypt


katrina-kaif2

Katrina Kaif has just returned from Egypt after shooting a song with her favourite co-star, Akshay Kumar, for the keenly awaited Singh Is Kinng.


And while Katrina is delighted with the way the song has shaped up, she is even more charmed by Egypt and its culture."It’s among the most beautiful countries I have visited - the pyramids, the temples and the landscape are absolutely exotic. I even enjoyed the barbecue dinner on a boat on the Nile. We shot in a number of places and I’ve come back with fond memories of my trip."


Ask her about the song she shot, Jee Karda, she smiles, "Wait and watch. It should be on air later this month. We shot at 4am every day to capture the light and it was scorching. To keep cool we would stay in shades and sip fruit juice or mint tea." But her recent tour to the African land almost got into trouble when local police reportedly arrived at the scene and objected to Katrina’s outfit that exposed her bare legs while she was shooting against the backdrop of the great pyramids along with Akki.


Egypt is predominantly a Muslim nation and revealing outfits are not accepted in public places.According to reports director Anees Bazmee, who was determined to shoot at the pyramids, managed to get the matter resolved with the help of others.

Vidya Balan, Shahid Kapoor romantic story

Vidya - Shahid: The Affair Which Started With An Autograph!


Post his break up with Bebo, Shahid is hitting the headlines yet once again. Everyone is talking about it, but no one knows how it all started. Contrary to many believes that it was Shahid who was on a rebound and found solace in Vidya’s arms, it was Vidya who took initiative and got something flowing between them.


It was on the sets of Kismat Konnection in Canada. They had never met each other or interacted before. Upon that, they were supposed to shoot an extra intimate romantic scene. Needless to say, both were nervous and not at ease at all. A birdie from the sets reveals, "Shahid is an introvert and takes time to open up to people. The unit was worried because Vidya and Shahid had never met each other before. Worst it was the first day of the shoot and the scene to be shot was a romantic one."


But then our Vidya is one hell of a girl. She decided that enough is enough and she is going to break the ice between the both.


"Vidya just walked up to Shahid. "Autograph please," she said placing an autograph book before him. The move took Shahid by complete surprise and he broke into laughter. The scenario changed completely. The atmosphere suddenly seemed warm and friendly. And what’s more the romantic scene was okayed in just one take," the source adds.


Vidya confirmed the incident saying, "Shahid and I had not known each other. He stood aloof and so did I. I decided to break the ice and begged for his autograph. An embarrassed Shahid did not know where to look. We have turned good friends since then."

Aishwarya Rai, tight schedules

aishwarya-rai-hot-photos-sexy-stills


Beauty queen Aishwarya Rai, who was worried how she would manage her tight schedules, is now relieved; she had signed Shankar’s Robot which stars Rajinikanth; she has also signed Mani Ratnam’s bilingual with Abhishek in the Hindi version and Vikram in the Tamil version; earlier, the schedules of these movies clashed. Aishwarya was worried about an impossible juggling of schedules that was dangling above her head like a sword. But she still went ahead and signed both films.


Pleased by this, director-producer Shankar has decided to give a 2-month break to Aishwarya Rai when Mani Ratnam’s film shooting begins. And moreover, filming for Robot begins in July or August, a little earlier than Mani Ratnam’s film which begins in September. So this buys Aishwarya time that she can spend on her homework too.

But, Chauhan who had assured the makers that he would help them in getting permission to shoot on railway premises failed to keep up his promise and so was removed from the job.


It was then that he started calling and blackmailing Shetty. When he used abusive language and threatened to harm his family, Sunil lost his cool, abused him back and then, Chauhan recorded the conversation and began blackmailing him.


Shetty has registered a complaint with three different police stations in Mumbai. On the other hand, Chauhan has also filed a complaint against Shetty in Delhi, alleging that the actor-producer has been threatening and abusing him.Sunil then decided to lie low about the alleged threats only because of his family. He waited until the children’s summer holidays, packed off his entire family for a prolonged vacation until the end of August and then decided to take on the man headlong.


In fact Sunil has given a list of the people who were persuading him to make a compromise with the extortionist to the cops.“I’m no longer losing sleep because the cops are on the guy’s trail and my family is far away and safe. Once the fear of family flies out, there’s nothing to stop from taking on my tormentors,” says Sunil.These days Sunil is shooting for Anant Mahadevan’s ‘Red Alert’ in the jungles.

A strange present on my birthday."

But Dad Anil Kapoor did make a ’weighty’ statement. Sonam has caught on. "I’m going on a diet. I need to get thinner to look comparable with the other girls. Look at Deepika. She’s athletic and slim. I’m not an athlete. But I’m a runner. I love to go on long runs all on my own for miles and miles. That is a sure way to lose weight."


But now with dad’s prodding her into a fat-free awakening Sonam is about to lose more kilos. "I have to. It’s not a vanity. It’s for my sanity. I can’t be happy being healthy when the other girls are frantically losing weight.

Who is Salman Khan's girl?

salman.khan


Anil Sharma, the director, is busy hunting for a girl for Salman Khan. The hunt is for acting opposite Salman in his upcoming flick Veer. It is informed that the director has auditioned a lot of new faces to star opposite Salman Khan in Veer recently. In spite of screen testing a bouquet of beaus, the director is still not satisfied. He finds it impossible to frame the beau ideal for the dude.


Earlier, the director was planning to take Bianca Damme, Hollywood action star Jean Claude Van Damme’s daughter, for the role. But, explaining about importing white skin, Anil Sharma had then said, "We are in talks." Later, there were gimmicky words afloat that Katrina’s younger sister Isabella is being considered for the leading role opposite Salman. Isabel also met the meticulous director Anil on a couple of occasions but Anil denied the fluffy words. Katrina Kaif has also chorused Sharma’s claim saying that Isabel is too young to join the film industry as she is yet complete her education.


Veer is a period film that will have Salman playing a Good Samaritan. The film’s shooting is likely to begin in August this year. It’s a period film based in 1800 and has been written by Salman himself. But despite having all the ingredients, the film is missing the leading lady. Then how should the film be cooked! Alas, the director was unavailable for comments.Technorati Tags: , , , ,

Esha Deol has a loving heart

Esha Deol


Despite having a rough and tough family background, Esha Deol has a loving heart. We discovered this when we spotted her donating for Shiksha, an NGO that helps educate children who cannot afford an education. Esha donated a box full of schooling requirements and got it buried underground for the next 100 years. Why? “This is to keep ‘today’ alive after 100 long years”, she explained.


Interestingly, every possible effort the actress has put in to survive in Bollywood - be it the ‘girl next door’ look in movies like Yuva and Just Married, action scenes in Dus and Cash, negative roles like the one in Ankahee or a bikini show for Dhoom - has proved unrewarding. Still, charity is always great, be it charity from a big star or a little one. Good work, Esha!

Kareena Kapoor's busy schedule

kareena-kapoor-2


Actor Kareena Kapoor is busy in Australia, shooting for Mr. & Mrs. Khanna. The girl was at her busiest best when she had to perform for IIFA, too. Kareena’s participation at the IIFA was a coup of sorts considering the fall out between the Bachchans and the Kapoors, after the engagement between Abhishek and Karisma was called off. However, more than heart, it’s money that may have forced Kareena to give a nod to this one.


Currently in Oz, Kareena is busy shooting during the day. "It’s damn cold here," she tells us, "But work is going well." A unit member informs us, "She is adamant that every stage performance of hers should be her best, and she isn’t taking anything lightly. She insists that everything she does from now on is serious business. You should’ve seen her practise for the IIFA. She used to shoot for Mr & Mrs. Khanna during the day, and then practise for her performance at night!"


The actor who performed to a medley of her songs from Jab We Met and Tashan is enjoying her life and career, and couldn’t be happier or busier! She plans to visit London soon and spend time with beau Saif Ali Khan as he produces his first venture with Deepika Padukone to be directed by Imtiaz Ali.

Saif was not happy with his girl

Saif-kareena


The Bollywood young couple Saif-kareena who had publicly announced their togetherness at the Lakme Fashion Week last October, sent out all the wrong signals at IIFA. To start with, the duo did not hit Bangkok together, Saif couldn’t be spotted in the audience when Kareena performed on stage, he was not there to cheer her lady when she received the Best Actress Award and Bebo didn’t find him important enough for even a mention in her acknowledgement speech. Instead she said (mark it guys!), “I want to thank three most important people for this award- director Imtiaz Ali, producer Ashtavinayak and…. the most important person, my co-star Shahid Kapoor.”


And not a word about Saif! According to inside sources, Saif was not happy with the skimpy outfit flaunting Kareena’s figure during her performance. He had Manish Malhotra do a rather Indian outfit for her. So, while others like Katrina and Dia Mirza were at their smouldering dress, Kareena’s elaborate dress spoilt the magic for her. Close sources also say that the lack of time together is the culprit for the misunderstanding between the two.

Shamita Shetty in Comedy?

Shamita Shetty_241


Bollywood actress Shamita Shetty shot for the promotional video of the film, ‘Hari Puttar-A Comedy of Terrors’, with Zain Khanfor. The song was titled as ‘Tutari Baje’ and the shooting was done in a bungalow situated right at the edge of Madh Island sea shore. Shamita, looking hot as usual, was all too luring for a ten year old kid.


In the film, Hari Puttar- A Comedy of Terrors, Zain plays a guy who is fond of Shamita. In the video, it is shown that Shamita walks into Zain’s life, his home and what happens after that.


Shamita and her gang of friends kept troubling, pinching and throwing pillows at Zain Khan. The shot was okayed after some nine takes. Zain got impatient with all the pinching and getting pushed around. Every time the director called out for more animation, Zain was seen exclaiming ‘Hey, ours is not an animation film!’.


This is Shamita’s first promotional video for any film and talking about it, Shamita said, “Yes, I have never shot for a promotional video where I am not acting in the film. There were two reasons, one that the film’s concept and the song is exceptionally good and second that the head of the production, Munish Purii is a dear friend of mine. When he approached me for the song and discussed the details, the way they wanted to shoot it, I was really impressed and readily agreed”.

Ash says she has asked for the final draft of the script. "Now the time factor has to be worked out. The time they want is devoted to Mani (Ratnam) Sir’s project. New dates have to be worked out. There’re so many projects that I want to do but because of the dates or a delay I can’t. There’re only that number of assignments I can take on. I’ve never done more work than I can do. I never can."


In the meanwhile, Aishwarya gets ready to shoot for Shankar’s "Robot" and Mani Ratnam’s film with Abhishek.


"There has been a little delay in Shankar’s ’Robot’ because of his writer Sujata ’s death. That has delayed ’Robot’ a bit. All kinds of rumours have been floated about the project. The dates situation does get tighter for me because I was supposed to shoot ’Robot’ now and Mani Sir’s film a little later during the year. We just have to work under a tighter schedule now."

“She told Priyanka about how she does not want to do more than one film a year,” reveals a source.


Priyanka played the perfect counsellor and was responsible for completely changing the latter’s career plans,” the source further adds, “Priyanka counselled Kangna on how her decision to stick to one film a year was a wrong one at this point in her career. She gave her own example, about how she started off when she was a newcomer and worked round the clock. Priyanka also told Kangna that only after doing a slew of films should she decide to take it easy.”


When contacted, Kangna confirms and says, “Yes, it was my idea to work in only one film every year, but thanks to riyanka’s guidance I have changed my decision. I signed a couple of films after she advised me to do so.” Kangna, apparently, has now signed four big banner films in just one week.

Bollywood actress' fashion trend


kareena-kapoor

Kareena Kapoor started off a fashion trend when she dropped a few kilos to get into a bikini for Tashan. Soha Ali Khan raised eyebrows and even upset her proetective big brother Saif Ali Khan when she got herself a cute look for a magazine cover. After years of playing the good girl, Amisha Patel got a brand new look for her cameo in Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic.


Telly bahus Sangeeta Ghosh and Shweta Salve have chucked their good girl image and are looking bold, brazen and ravishing in their debut film, Bhanvra. Even petite Amrita Rao seems to have finally gotten tired after playing girl next-door and tries to get herself a glam makeover, while even Priyanka Chopra gets into the beach babe mood in Dostana.


What makes Bollywood girls get glam and shed clothes and their conservative screen image almost overnight? “What’s wrong about showing off a bit skin? Actresses have been wearing skimpy clothes for years, we are more casual about it now,” says actress Sangeeta Ghosh. “I did ‘bold scenes’ because the script demanded that,” points out Sangeeta. “I believe that if you are comfortable then there is nothing wrong in it. I always do things that I believe are right for me,” chips in Shweta, who has done some ‘hot, hot’ bikini scenes in her debut film.


But do filmmakers want their leading ladies to look ‘glam and beauty' or do the actresses offer to flaunt skin? “Of course, the filmmaker asked me to wear a bikini and I had no reservations,” says Shweta. The only problem - shrugging off a glam image is not easy.


Ask Mallika Sherawat, Neha Dhupia, Celina Jaitley and their ilk, how they have been caught in that image trap for years now. “No film works because the leading lady is wearing skimpy clothes. Ultimately, you have to act,” affirms Sangeeta. It is official, every top star from Rani Mukerji to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have got into the glam mode more than once in recent times to woo the audience. It becomes a matter of surging ahead of competitors. Malaika Arora Khan feels it is “very important to keep changing one’s image because this is the only way you will sustain in this business”.

However, one glowing face that was a regular fixture six months ago was nowhere to be seen or sighted, by Dhoni, Yuvraj or the fans.


No guessing game here! We are talking about Deepika Padukone. We guess, Ranbir is not interested in cricket. But while on Deepika, it is interesting to note that her idea of a dream home .“Is staying with my parents.” Agreed, the girl is constantly on the move all the time and time spent with family is always a “dream”! Well, said Deepika. But that’s what we called paying a heavy price for stardom!

Bollywood glamourous actress Amisha Patel is going all glam for her next release Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic. "You are going to see a much more of me" says the actress who plays acharacter called Mallaika in the film.

"My character is extremely entertaining, but she is very different from me. I’m educated and I’ve never been a giggly girl," says Amisha Patel.

"Even her body language and mannerisms are very different. It was difficult as I had to learn how to act like an airhead bimbo," she adds.Amisha also has a sizzling number with Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan in the film.

"A lot is happening in the song as it’s the turning point in the film. It’s the first film in the history of Indian cinema that has a song that has lip sync under water," she says.Amisha Patel is certainly having a ball being one of the Yash Raj women."Yash Raj has always presented its women so well, right from the time of Yashji’s films," she says.

That is true with everyone going ga-ga over Kareena Kapoor’s look in the Bollywood Movie Tashan, however the film didn’t go down well at the box-office, hope that is not the case with Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic.

"He had been approached and invited. Unfortunately the period he spent with the Indian Premier League matches disrupted his entire schedule," said Sabbas Joseph, director Wizcraft. "Shah Rukh has just begun his film with Aditya Chopra. So he is busy with that. But we would have been delighted if he could have come," Joseph said. Shah Rukh is a great entertainer in any scenario," said Joseph.

Bollywood Smart boy Salman Khan making his grand television debut with Dus Ka Dum, a horde of celebrity guests are bound to be invited. Recently, rumours were rife that despite having patched up with Sallu miyan, Red Hair Beauty Priyanka Chopra refused to be part of Salman Khan reality show.

I can’t impose myself on people.”Having settled that piece of news as mere gossip, she went on to clarify the other allegation about her cold war with Kareena Kapoor. Reports maintained Priyanka’s weight loss was courtesy Bebo’s size zero look. However, Priyanka says she lost weight for her films Fashion and Love Story 2050 as the scripts demanded a leaner look. “I don’t believe you need to give up food to lose weight. Indian women are blessed with voluptuous bodies. That’s our genetic style and I am very proud of it.”


Priyanka also spoke about the Hollywood offers she has received. According to sources, Priyanka was offered to play the role of Superman’s female lead in a Hollywood production. She says, “There have been offers but nothing so exciting that I would move away from Bollywood. If I am changing genres from Hindi to English, the film has to be worth it.” Perhaps, she is more satisfied playing the love interest of desi heroes, Krrish and Drona.

Mallika Sherawat is too hot!


mallika_sherawat

Bollywood sext girl Mallika Sherawat is hot! And there are no two ways about that!


For Rahul Bose, Mallika is the sexiest and talented actress he has worked with. He still fondly remembers the Pyaar Ke Side Effect days that had them paired together for the first time.


It was this film that Rahul turned a Mallika Sherawat fan. So when Sanjay Chhel offered him Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam with Mallika, Rahul just could not refuse it.


Besides Rahul, now there’s one more actor to have turned a Mallika fan. He is none other than the ultra talented Paresh Rawal. The actor finds Mallika to be hot. In fact he finds her to be so hot that he literally misses her presence on the sets. In fact he often jokingly lands up saying, ’Where is the root cause of global warming? I mean Mallika!" Being her "fan", Paresh would surely cool things down!

Tania Zaetta denied sex allegations

thumb_tania-zaetta(1)


TV and film celebrity Tania Zaetta is likely to sue and demand compensation for unproven troop sex allegations. The 37-year-old actress was accused of having sex with Oz troops during her Middle East tour, however she strongly denied the allegations. Zaetta has decided to take legal action after the Defence Department admitted it broke its own privacy regulations by naming her in a high-level briefing document to Defence Minister Joel Fitzgibbon.

In an interview to Nine Network’s A Current Affair, Zaetta said that she has briefed lawyers and believed she was owed an apology from the department. "How does a supposed document ... that I don’t know about get leaked in the first place - that’s a little bit concerning about the security of the country," News.com.au quoted her as saying. "It’s complete made-up lies. I feel I am owed an apology," she added.

When asked if she had been alone with any soldiers during the 17-day tour, Zaetta said: "You were never alone with any soldiers - you were in full view of everybody else all the time."


According to the Daily Telegraph, the briefing document had named Zaetta as the subject of an unproven allegation - made by rock singer Angry Anderson - that she had sex with Special Forces troops at the Australian base of Tarin Kowt in Afghanistan. However, the former ’Who Dares Wins’ host supports Anderson.


"I asked him and I believed him when he said no. He wasn’t sure where it came from," said Zaetta. Defence has confirmed that an investigation into the claims is under way and yesterday "apologised unreservedly" to Zaetta for disclosing the claims.

"Dubai is special to us not just as a place where we enjoy great warmth and generosity in terms of love from the people, but it’s become a remarkable place and one that is so close to home for us," Abhishek said. "I’m always excited, I’ve never been nervous before (the release of) a film. It’s been a great experience and I’m looking forward to sharing it with the audiences", said the former Miss World.


However, the two were yet to watch the film, they said. Asked if they planned to move to the emirate, Abhishek said relocating "in the real sense" was not on the cards, as the family lived and worked in Mumbai.

Bollywood Starsmoved to real estate Business

deepika-17b Amitabh


Deepika Padukone is the latest to join these marquee names. Aspire Real Estate, a Dubai-based developer, has signed up the actress as its brand ambassador. "We are targeting India, and Deepika will add to our brand equity," said an Aspire spokesperson.


Bollywood celebrities don’t just peddle dreams but also dream homes. Real estate developers are now banking on the star power of the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai to endorse their projects.


Pune-based Brahma Developers uses actress Katrina Kaif to promote its SunCity project, Chandigarh-based LVL City has signed up cricketer Yuvraj Singh, Chadha Group has former cricketer Kapil Dev, AEZ group has actress Perizaad Zorabian while small screen star Shweta Tiwari of Kasauti Zindagi Ki fame was the brand ambassador for Gaursons Developers.


Kochi’s Jairaj Projects has roped in Malayalam film star Jayaram; SRK Constructions has singer Yesudas, cricketer Rahul Dravid endorses Skyline Housing, while another cricketer, S. Sreesanth, promotes the Kochi-based Mather Builders.


Sternon Real Estate, also of Dubai, has Mandira Bedi, TV anchor and actress, as brand ambassador for Magic Hills Residences, a project aimed at non-resident Indians on the Mumbai-Pune Highway.


Interestingly, the stars themselves seem to be falling for these campaigns, buying prime properties in Mumbai: Sachin Tendulkar has bought a Rs.350 million property in the elite suburb Bandra, Shah Rukh himself is reported to have shelled out Rs.560 million for an office space in Khar, while actor-politician Vinod Khanna has bought a 2,500 sq ft apartment at Malabar Hill for Rs.350 million.


There are many who aver that stars are being signed up more in an attempt to build brands than to propel sales.

For the record recap that recently Vidya has been in the news with her brewing romance with Shahid Kapoor.

Ms.Jayalalithaa in Dasavatharam

14272363dasavatharam5aax9


A day can never be complete without fascinating news surfacing about the much expected Kamal Hassan starrer ’Dasavatharam’. The latest however has the potential to wake a man in deep slumber into wide eyed fascination. Is it really true? For all we know, it could very well be.

Kamal Hassan and former Tamilnadu Chief Minister Ms.Jayalalithaa might very well share screen space probably for the very second time.

As we all know there is a seven minute Tsunami sequence in this flick that travels back in time and forth. The Tsunami that wrecked havoc in Tamilnadu was a major catastrophe that made the then Ms.Jayalalithaa government swing into action for relief. This incident features in the film and toeing the lines of Kamal’s earlier film ’Indian’ where he actually meets up with Netaji Subash Chandra Bose and Tom Hanks sharing screen space with the American president of the sixties John F. Kennedy in the film ’Forrest Gump’.

Such scenes though visually manipulated add authenticity to the story line. Keeping up with this logic and given the fact that ’Dasavatharam’ has a team that has the potential to think big and wild, it sure is very possible that Kamal Hassan and Ms.Jayalalithaa would be seen together in the film.

Neha Uberoi's dad stays away from her flim premiere

neha-uberoi


It was supposed to be a dream day for Neha Uberoi. But the fun of her debut Bollywood film "Woodstock Villa" premiering on the same day as her 23rd birthday was somewhat spoilt by her father himself staying away from it.


The reason was the ongoing war between the film’s producer Sanjay Gupta and actor Sanjay Dutt who has launched his own production house. Gupta, incidentally, is Neha’s uncle.Obviously no one even remotely associated with Dutt’s production house showed up at the premiere Thursday night.


Neha’s father Dharam Uberoi, who used to work for Gupta’s White Feather and is now closely associated with Dutt, stayed away from the premiere. The film, released Friday, co-stars Sikandar Kher."There was no question of attending the premiere even if it was my daughter’s big day. I’ve my entire life to devote to her happiness and career. Yes, I regret I couldn’t be there for her. But I’ve moved on. I wish Mr Gupta all the best in life," Uberoi told..


Neha, confused but excited, tried to put up a brave face."I don’t even want to think about these things. I just want to concentrate on my premiere night and my career. As far as ’Woodstock Villa’ is concerned I’ve no complaints."I got a launch any newcomer would die for. I play a kidnapped wife in my very first film. And I’m happy for the unconventional launch. I don’t think the audience is interested in a new girl and boy holding hands and running across pristine meadows in slow motion.


"Not that my launch is entirely unconventional. I’ve four songs in ’Woodstock Villa’. And I’ve my father and Sanjay Dutt’s expertise in the business to guide me. So no regrets at all," Neha said.Not even about the fact that her rather-attractive voice was dubbed in her debut film?


"Well...that is rather unfortunate. But being dubbed is not a new experience for me. I’ve done two Telugu films where I couldn’t speak my own lines. But I’ve dubbed for myself in my next film Hindi film ’EMI’ (which is produced by Suniel Shetty’s Popcorn Entertainment) and in Soham Shah’s ’Luck’."I leave for South Africa to shoot for ’Luck’ with Imran Khan (Aamir’s nephew). So I’ve a lot to look forward to."


Neha had an early birthday celebration. "I brought it in with my family and retired early because I knew I had a big long night the following day for my premiere."

I’m sure Harman will as well.”
